She shoots, she scores

Paulina Gretzky has cracked Maxim’s list of the world’s 100 most beautiful women.

The magazine dubs her “Twitter’s sex kitten” — a reference to the series of racy pictures that Wayne Getzky’s little girl posted to her 25,000+ followers last year before daddy reportedly had a talk with her. She later admitted she’d done it to jumpstart her modelling career. More recently she stirred up another online scandal by posting even more sexually suggestive shots to Instagram (before promptly taking them down).

Ms. Gretzky now has 35,510 Instagram followers. Her twitter count stands at 129,079.

She clocks-in at number 87 on the Maxim list, between Canadian soap star Jacqueline MacInnes Wood and Danish professional tennis player Caroline Wozniaki. The magazine also describes the 23-year old as a “pop singer.” Can a cover of “Papa Don’t Preach” be far behind?
